Inā kūʻai ʻoe i kahi smoothie ma Portland, Oregon, hiki ke inu i loko o ke kīʻaha plastic compostable, kahi koho a ka mea nona ka noʻonoʻo e hana ai e hoʻomau i kā lākou hana.Manaʻo paha ʻoe, i ka nānā wikiwiki ʻana, ke kōkua nei ʻoe e pale i kahi ʻāpana o ka pilikia ʻōpala honua.Akā, ʻo ka papahana composting o Portland, e like me nā kūlanakauhale he nui, ua pāpā ʻia i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana o ka pehu mai kona mau pahu ʻōmaʻomaʻo—a ʻaʻole e haki kēia ʻano plastic i loko o ka composter backyard.ʻOiai hiki ke hoʻopuehu ʻia, e hoʻopau ʻia ka ipu i loko o kahi ʻāina (a i ʻole ka moana paha), kahi e mau ai ka plastic e like me kona ʻano wahie fossil.

Ke paʻakikī nei nā ʻoihana e hoʻoponopono i ka paʻakikī o ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka hoʻohana hoʻokahi, ua maʻalahi nā koho compostable, a noʻonoʻo paha nā mea kūʻai aku he ʻōmaʻomaʻo inā ʻike lākou ʻaʻole e hoʻopuehu maoli ʻia ka pahu.ʻO ka ʻōnaehana, ʻoiai, ke hoʻomaka nei e loli, me nā mea hou i nā mea."He mau pilikia hiki ke hoʻoponopono ʻia kēia, ʻaʻole nā pilikia kūlohelohe," wahi a Rhodes Yepsen, ka luna hoʻokele o ka Biodegradable Products Institute.Inā hiki ke hoʻopaʻa ʻia ka ʻōnaehana—e like me ka pono e hoʻopaʻa ʻia ka ʻōnaehana hana hou i haki ʻia—hiki ia i kahi ʻāpana o ka hoʻonā ʻana i ka pilikia nui o ka ulu ʻana i ka ʻōpala.ʻAʻole ia wale nō ka hopena.Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Yepsen he mea kūpono ke hoʻomaka ma ka hōʻemi ʻana i ka hoʻopili ʻana a me ka hoʻonohonoho mua ʻana i nā huahana hiki ke hoʻohana hou ʻia, a laila e hoʻolālā i nā mea i koe e hana hou ʻia a compostable ma muli o ke noi.Akā, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka paʻi compostable no ka meaʻai;inā hiki ke hui pū ʻia ka meaʻai a me ka ʻeke meaʻai, hiki ke kōkua i ka mālama ʻana i nā meaʻai hou aʻe i waho o nā pae ʻāina, kahi kumu nui o ka methane, kahi kinoea hoʻomehana honua ikaika.
Hoʻonui ka compost i ke kaʻina hana maoli o ka palaho o nā mea ola—e like me ka ʻāpala ʻai hapalua—ma o nā ʻōnaehana e hana i nā kūlana kūpono no nā microorganism ʻai ʻōpala.I kekahi mau hihia, maʻalahi ia e like me ka puʻu meaʻai a me ka ʻōpala o ka pā i hoʻohuli lima ʻia e kekahi i loko o ka pā hale.Pono ka hui ʻana o ka wela, nā meaʻai, a me ka oxygen no ka hana maikaʻi ʻana;ʻO nā pahu compost a me nā barela e ʻoi aku ka wela o nā mea a pau, kahi e wikiwiki ai ka hoʻololi ʻana o ka ʻōpala i loko o ka wai momona ʻeleʻele e hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia i loko o ka māla e like me ka mea kanu.Hoʻolālā ʻia kekahi mau ʻāpana e hana i loko o kahi lumi kuke.
I loko o ka hale composter a i ʻole ka puʻu pā hale, hiki ke wāwahi maʻalahi nā huaʻai a me nā mea kanu.Akā, ʻaʻole paha e wela ka pahu o hope e wāwahi ai i ka plastic compostable, e like me ka pahu lawe bioplastic a i ʻole ka ʻōpala i hana ʻia mai ka PLA (polylactic acid), kahi mea i hana ʻia mai ke kulina, ke kō, a i ʻole nā mea kanu ʻē aʻe.Pono ia i ka hui pono o ka wela, ka wela, a me ka manawa—he mea paha e hiki mai ana ma ka hale hana compost wale no, a ma kekahi mau hihia wale no.Ua kapa ʻia ʻo Frederik Wurm, he chemist ma Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research, ʻo PLA straws "he kumu hoʻohālike maikaʻi loa o ka holoi ʻana i ka ʻōmaʻomaʻo," no ka mea inā e pau lākou i ka moana, ʻaʻole lākou e biodegrade.
Ua hoʻolālā mua ʻia ka hapa nui o nā kikowaena compost no ka lawe ʻana i ka ʻōpala pā e like me nā lau a me nā lālā, ʻaʻole ka meaʻai.ʻOiai i kēia manawa, ʻo nā hale hana 4,700 e lawe ana i ka ʻōpala ʻōmaʻomaʻo, ʻo 3% wale nō e lawe i ka meaʻai.ʻO Kapalakiko kekahi kūlanakauhale i aʻo mua i ka manaʻo, e hoʻokele ana i ka hōʻiliʻili ʻōpala meaʻai i ka makahiki 1996 a me ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana i kēlā kūlanakauhale a puni i ka makahiki 2002.

No ka ʻai ʻana, hana maikaʻi.Akā ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī o ka hoʻopili compostable no kahi hale o kēlā nui.Hiki i kekahi mau huahana ke lawe i nā mahina ʻeono e wāwahi ai, a ʻōlelo ʻia kahi waha ʻōlelo Recology e pono ke nānā ʻia kekahi o nā mea i ka hopena a holo i ke kaʻina hana i ka lua o ka manawa.He nui nā ipu compostable i hoʻopaʻa ʻia i ka hoʻomaka ʻana, no ka mea, ua like lākou me ka plastic maʻamau, a ua hoʻouna ʻia i nā pae ʻāina.ʻO kekahi mau mea hana compost ʻē aʻe e hana wikiwiki ana, me ka manaʻo e hana i ka nui o ka compost e kūʻai aku e like me ka hiki, ʻaʻole makemake lākou e kali i nā mahina no ka pohō ʻana o ka lāʻau a ʻaʻole ʻae loa iā lākou.
Hoʻopau ka hapa nui o nā ʻeke chip i nā ʻāpana ʻāina, no ka mea ua hana ʻia lākou me nā papa he nui o nā mea hiki ʻole ke hana hou ʻia.ʻOkoʻa ka ʻeke ʻai meaʻai hou i kēia manawa mai PepsiCo a me ka hui ʻeke ʻeke ʻo Danimer Scientific: Hana ʻia mai kahi mea hou i kapa ʻia ʻo PHA (polyhydroxyalkanoate) e hoʻomaka ana ʻo Danimer e hana ma ke kālepa ma hope o kēia makahiki, ua hoʻolālā ʻia ka ʻeke e wāwahi me ka maʻalahi e hiki ai. e hoʻopuehu ʻia i loko o kahi puʻupuʻu o hope, a e wāwahi ʻia i loko o ka wai kai anuanu, ʻaʻohe waiho ʻana i ka plastic.
Aia i ka wā mua, akā he hana koʻikoʻi ia no nā kumu he nui.No ka mea, ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻopuehu ʻia nā ipu PLA maʻamau i kēia manawa ma ka home, a ʻaʻole makemake nā hale hana composting ʻoihana e hana me ka mea, hāʻawi ka PHA i kahi ʻē aʻe.Inā hoʻopau ʻia i loko o kahi hale hoʻopuehu ʻoihana, e wāwahi wikiwiki ia, e kōkua ana e hoʻoponopono i kekahi o nā pilikia no kēlā mau ʻoihana."Ke lawe ʻoe iā [PLA] i mea haku mele maoli, makemake lākou e hoʻohuli i kēlā mea i ʻoi aku ka wikiwiki," wahi a Stephen Croskrey, Luna Nui o Danimer."No ka mea ʻoi aku ka wikiwiki o ka hoʻohuli ʻana, ʻoi aku ka nui o ke kālā.E wāwahi ka mea i loko o kā lākou compost.ʻAʻole lākou makemake e lōʻihi ka lōʻihi ma mua o ko lākou makemake.
ʻO PHA, hiki ke hoʻololi ʻia i nā huahana plastik like ʻole, hana ʻokoʻa."Lawe mākou i ka ʻaila meaʻai a hānai iā ia i ka bacteria," wahi a Croskrey.Hana pololei ka bacteria i ka plastik, a ʻo ke ʻano o ka haku mele ʻana, ʻoi aku ka maʻalahi o ka maʻi bacteria ma mua o ka plastic maʻamau."No ke aha ia e hana maikaʻi ai i ka biodegradation no ka mea he kumu meaʻai makemake ia no ka bacteria.No laila ke hoʻolaha ʻoe iā ia i ka maʻi bacteria, e hoʻomaka lākou e ʻai iā ia, a e pau ia.(Ma kahi papa kūʻai kūʻai nui a i ʻole kaʻa lawe kaʻa, kahi liʻiliʻi o nā bacteria, e paʻa loa ka pūʻulu.) Ua hōʻoia ʻia nā hoʻāʻo ua haki ʻia i ka wai kai anuanu.
ʻO ka hāʻawi ʻana i ka manawa no ka hoʻopili ʻia ʻana o ka pōʻai ma ka home hiki ke kōkua i ka hoʻopiha ʻana i kahi āpau no ka poʻe ʻaʻole hiki ke komo i ka compost ma ka pā."ʻO ka nui o ka hiki iā mākou ke wehe i nā pale mai nā mea kūʻai aku e komo i ke ʻano o ka composting a i ʻole ka hana hou ʻana, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi," wahi a Simon Lowden, ka pelekikena a me ka luna kūʻai nui o nā meaʻai honua ma PepsiCo, nāna e alakaʻi i ka papahana plastics sustainable o ka hui.Ke hana nei ka hui i nā hoʻonā he nui no nā huahana like ʻole a me nā mākeke, me kahi ʻeke chip recyclable piha e hiki koke mai ana i ka mākeke.Akā ʻoi aku ka manaʻo o kahi ʻeke biodegradable ma nā wahi i hiki ke wāwahi.E hele mai ana ka ʻeke hou i ka mākeke ma 2021. (Hoʻolālā pū ʻo Nestlé e hoʻohana i nā mea hana e hana ai i nā ʻōmole wai plastik, ʻoiai ke hoʻopaʻapaʻa nei kekahi poʻe loea e hoʻohana wale ʻia ka ʻeke compostable no nā huahana hiki ʻole ke hoʻohana hou a hoʻohana hou ʻia.) Manaʻo ʻo PepsiCo e hana hou i kona ʻeke a pau, compostable, a i ʻole biodegradable e 2025 e kōkua i kāna mau pahuhopu aniau.
Inā ʻaʻole i hoʻopuehu ʻia ka mea a hoʻopuehu wale ʻia, e nalowale ana."Inā loaʻa kahi huahana i hoʻokumu ʻia i ka wahie mōʻalihaku a i ʻole kahi mea hoʻopuehu ʻenehana i ke ala i loko o kahi kahawai a i ʻole kekahi mea a pau i ke kai, e lele wale ana ia ma laila a mau loa," wahi a Croskrey."ʻO kā mākou huahana, inā e hoʻolei ʻia e like me ka ʻōpala, e hele aku."No ka mea, ua hana ʻia ia mai ka ʻaila meaʻai ma mua o nā wahie mōʻalihaku, he haʻahaʻa ka wāwae kalapona.Manaʻo ʻo Pepsi he 40-50% ka haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa o ka pahu kalapona ma mua o kāna hōʻailona maʻalahi.
Hiki ke kōkua pū kekahi mau mea hou i nā mea.ʻO Loliware, ka mea i hana i nā mauʻu mai loko mai o nā mea limu, i hoʻolālā i nā mauʻu he "hyper-compostable" (a hiki ke ʻai ʻia).Hana ʻo CuanTec ma Scotland i kahi wīwī plastik mai nā pūpū iʻa—ʻo ia ka mea i manaʻo ʻia e kekahi hale kūʻai nui o UK e hoʻohana ai no ka wahī ʻana i ka iʻa—hiki ke hana ʻia i loko o ka pā hale.Hana ʻo Cambridge Crops i kahi papa pale e hiki ke ʻai, ʻono ʻole, hoʻomau (a me ka compost) no ka meaʻai e hiki ke kōkua i ka hoʻopau ʻana i ka pono o ka wīwī plastik.
Ma mua o kēia makahiki, ua hoʻolaha kekahi hale hoʻopuehu nui ma Oregon, ma hope o hoʻokahi ʻumi makahiki o ka ʻae ʻana i ka puʻupuʻu compostable, ʻaʻole ia e hana hou.ʻO ka paʻakikī nui loa, ʻōlelo lākou, he paʻakikī loa ka ʻike inā he compostable maoli ka pūʻolo."Inā ʻike ʻoe i kahi kīʻaha maʻemaʻe, ʻaʻole ʻoe i ʻike inā i hana ʻia me ka PLA a i ʻole ka plastic maʻamau," wahi a Jack Hoeck, hope pelekikena o ka hui, i kapa ʻia ʻo Rexius.Inā hele mai ka ʻōpala ʻōmaʻomaʻo mai ka hale ʻaina a i ʻole ka home, ua hoʻokuʻu hewa paha ka poʻe kūʻai aku i kahi pūʻolo i loko o ka pahu hewa—a i ʻole maopopo ʻole i ka mea kūpono e hoʻokomo, no ka mea, hiki i nā lula ke byzantine a ʻano like ʻole ma waena o nā kūlanakauhale.Manaʻo kekahi poʻe kūʻai ʻo "ka pau ʻana o ka meaʻai" ʻo ia hoʻi kekahi mea e pili ana i ka meaʻai, me ka hoʻopili ʻana, wahi a Hoeck.Ua hoʻoholo ka hui e lawe i kahi laina paʻa a ʻae wale i ka meaʻai, ʻoiai hiki iā ia ke maʻalahi i nā mea compost e like me nā napkin.ʻOiai i ka wā e pāpā ai nā hale hana composting i ka hoʻopili ʻana, pono lākou e hoʻolilo i ka manawa e hoʻokaʻawale iā ia mai ka popopo ʻai."Loaʻa iā mākou nā poʻe a mākou e uku ai i nā ʻāpana a pono lākou e koho lima i nā mea āpau," wahi a Pierce Louis, ka mea hana ma Dirthugger, kahi hale hoʻoheheʻe organik.“He mea ʻino a hoʻopailua a weliweli hoʻi.”
